Ocean acidification is caused by CO2 in the atmosphere when it reacts with water it creates carbonic acid. It’s a significant and harmful consequence of excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that we don’t see or feel because its effects are happening underwater. When carbon dioxide is absorbed by seawater a chemical reaction occurs that reduces the seawaters pH‚ carbonate ion concentration‚ and saturation states of biologically significant calcium carbonate minerals. It decreases the pH of seawater

Journey to the Ocean Floor Oceanography is a science that draws upon the methods and knowledge of geology‚ chemistry‚ physics‚ and biology to study the ocean. The Pacific Ocean is the largest and the deepest ocean. Most submersible dives follow a similar pattern‚ emphasizing bottom transecting‚ collecting and photographing specimens. To understand our ocean floor exploration‚ you must first know something about the ocean floor. Follow along below as I summarize the parts of the ocean floor.

Summary and Response to Ocean Acidification Article The National Geographic article “Ocean Acidification; Carbon Dioxide is Putting Shelled Animals at Risk‚” argues that the drop in surface pH could have a devastating effect on not only the organisms living in the ocean‚ but the environment that surrounds us. Research has shown that at least half of the carbon dioxide being emitted into the atmosphere has been absorbed by the oceans over time. This has benefited our environment because by reducing
